$100-$200 a year = 1 dozen to 2 dozen a year

I can ussually get through a year on just one dozen. I will ussually work my way down to about 3 arrows and then there is ussually something "better" I think I need to try so the next year I buy a different brand or something like that. But hey after a couple years I have a good mixed bag of different arrowsto take out and launch a few at rabbits come winter time.

I'm already $180 in this year, but plan on buying another dozen just to have before the season rolls around, but like Mobo, I'll get these at cost.

I usually by 1/2 dozen new ACCs a year to keep the stock up. So about $60 a year since buying the initial 18.

Little to nothing. I rarely lose or break them. That's the advantage to using premium arrows. Unless there is a new arrow that I want to try, I don't spend anything on arrows on a yearly basis. I still have 8 of a dozenA/C/C 3-60s that I bought 6 years ago. I did buy some Axis FMJs last year.

Murphy isn't one of my better friends, Jeff, and we both know that stuff happens.

I plan on shooting FMJs for quite awhile, so I just like having a lot of arrows. Plus I like to experiment with new fletching and whatnot, and it helps to have extra arrows to do this with rather than refletch my primary arrows.

My 6th dozen since January is in the mail now. [8D]

Most of those 6 dozen are target specific arrows for different uses though. 2x dozen 30x Pro's, 1x dozen X-Cutter Pro's, 1x dozen Pro 22's, 1x dozen CAA 350's, and 1x dozen CAA 400's. I will probably order another dozen pro 22's soon that weight match my first dozen in the next few weeks.

I have acquiredat least four dozen already this year. Half of these were ST Excel's - which have turned to be a very good arrow for the money. Pariticularly after you true up the inserts in a lathe. Will probably get at least another dozen - maybe two. Haven't really lost or broken more than five or six - so maybe after the next purchase (ST Axis?) I'll be set for awhile hopefully.

PS- I'm providing arrows for three bows: mine, son's, and daughter's. I'm the only one who shoots regularly.
